Hey, old iron, let's talk about this folk saying, "On the sixth day of the fourth month, three dishes are not on the table, and the next year will be empty". What does the proverbial "three dishes not on the table" mean? Don't worry, let's take our time. Blessed people, leave a sentence in the comment area: "One shun and one hundred shun, the Bodhisattva blesses", for themselves, for their children, and for the whole family to receive blessings.
What do you mean by "three dishes not on the table"?
In fact, this "three dishes are not on the table" is closely related to the life of our people in the Northeast, which means that when everyone celebrates the New Year and festivals, it is not polite to put three dishes on the table, what's the matter? Listen to me slowly.
New Year's Day, festival, that is the most lively time for our Northeast people. Every household has to prepare a lot of delicious food, put it on the table, offer it to the ancestors, ask for peace, ask for good luck. Our mother-in-law in the northeast, mothers-in-law, but not afraid of tiredness, began to work early, preparing for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the New Year's banquet, in short, a hearty and explosive meal.
But here's the problem, if there are only three dishes on the table, it's a bit bad. If you have a big holiday, the three dishes are not on the table, so how can you explain to your ancestors? So as the saying goes, if the three dishes are not on the table, the luck will not be good in the coming year, and the one will be empty.
All three dishes have to be ready!
As the saying goes, the three dishes are not served on the table, but in fact, it is also a tradition left by our ancestors from generation to generation, reflecting the respect for our ancestors and the blessing of life. Northeast people, have always been real people, during the New Year's holiday, they always have to do something big, to make their ancestors happy, but also to keep their own family safe.
Therefore, during the New Year's holiday, we can't be greedy for saving trouble, so we put three dishes on the table. That is not respecting the ancestors, and not respecting oneself. You have to prepare well, and you have to arrange all three dishes, five dishes, and seven dishes!
To sum up
Therefore, Lao Tie, we say the saying "on the sixth day of the fourth month, the three dishes are not on the table, and the next year will be empty", in fact, it is to remind everyone that when the New Year is celebrated, you have to be a little sincere, and you have to offer your ancestors well, so that your life will be smooth and smooth, and it will not be empty.
Northeast people have always been honest and sincere. During the Chinese New Year, sumptuous dishes must be placed on the table to welcome the new year and have good luck.
So, don't forget, during the Chinese New Year, prepare more dishes and more heart, so that you can have a more prosperous life!
